SyllabuS-Evidence considered and label
sufficient to sustain the verdict. The fact
mat servant knows tne urfvUtive condition
OF the instrumentalities with which he works
does not necessarily charge him with contrib
utory negligence or the assumption OF risks
growing out of such defects. He must also
understand, and ought in the exercise of
! ordinary prudence, TO understand the risks
| to which the defects expose him following
| former decision). Although IL be negligence
on the part of the master To leave dangerous
machinery uncovered, yet the servant is not
necessarily guilty of contributory negligence
because he works in the vicinity of it, know
ing its condition; the measure of the two in
that regard not being the same. Order af-
tirmed. MITCHELL, D.
Sarah NJ Mcclellan, appellant, vs. Lewis

| electment suit to he allowed for improve
ments under either section Is or section 10,
| chapter 20, general statutes, tho improve
| ments must have been made by him or those

| holder of such certificate enters and makes
improvements on the premises before the ex-
| piration of the time for redemption he Is not
